Chainsaw Man Chapter 85 Summary And Review: Kobeni Is Back! Wait Kobeni Is Back?

 Guys Kobeni is Back! Wait, Kobeni is back? (Chainsaw Man Chapter 85 Summary And Review)


This all happens before "The Kobeni Dance Chapter". I have also noticed that some people have taken a great liking to this writing style so whoever you are reading this: "Hi." By the way... take this writing as you will, this is just a fan review, nothing too overtly serious and it is a compilation of sorts of what fans are talking about about the recent chapter of Chainsaw Man which is Chapter 85. This also means that the mangaka can do what suites him or his fans (if they all so please), and don't have to follow this review to the dot, it is just remarks on chapters and interesting perspectives on things.

This picture perfectly illustrates how this chapter turned out:

Kobeni Might Be The Winner Of Chainsaw Man's Battle Royale? Wouldn’t it be ironic if she was the only character to survive until the end considering how unlucky she is?

Fans have been joking around with the fact that Kobeni has made it this far (so far) with little to no luck at times! Thus have speculated or come up with the hypothesis that she might in fact be in a contract with one of the most powerful entities in the universe: The Author-Devil. She might have traded in her luck for the ability to survive (think about it, her party members were wiped out twice).


Someone even said "Would it not be very entertaining and ironic if Kobeni was the only (or one of the only few) character[s] to survive until the end considering how unlucky she is? Somthing really worth thinking about."


What I noticed this chapter was that slightly took a light hearted comedic path amidst the chaos and carnage whilst keeping the chaos and carnage intact.

So can we say that Chainsaw Man Chapter 85 was not a tragedy but a comedy?

Comedy and Jokes aside, the mangaka's (Fujimoto's) use of foreshadowing is amazing! Stick with me here:


* Earlier Chapters On Aki and wanting to see hell:

A few chapters earlier Aki is in hospital and asked if he wants to leave the bureau or "stay and see hell". They literally went to hell 30 chapters later


* Kishibe Was Dumb Founded:

Our man Kishibe was just like: "What?". 

The little things do matter. Remember that time when Denji is like "He'll let Kishibe live?" Well, this scene really puts a huge smile on my face (corny line and all). 

Side note: Do you really think Kishibe would be an easy picking? He is considered the strangest hunter so that is something worth thinking about. I can't wait to find out what is next.

* Helping People Out?

Chainsaw Man seems to respond to people asking for help as we could slightly see this as he jumped straight to helping whoever called out.

* Kobeni's Stutter and Her Tripping:

The little things you notice and the forshadowing in this manga are gold! The reread value is quite high. Look back some chapters ago and you see why Kobeni trips in this chapter.

* Extent of Makima's Control Powers?

Can Makima control Chainsaw Man and Denji? I don't think she can though, I believe she's unable to control him with her power seeing that:

 - As remarked by a rabid fan, you can see here where her words are emboldened like when she uses her power later on she commanded Denji to sort of "explain himself" and he instead went for a hug which surprised Makima. Notice how when emboldened she can control people like she did with Angel.

Extent Of Makima's Powers - Strangely did not work on Denji. You can see her stunned in the bottom left after he ignores what she said.

Actually that made me realize something that has been bothering me for a while. Going to go through a lot of these spoilers tags and reread the manga again to be safe.


* Why Hasn't Makima Controlled Denji Yet?

So why hasn't Makima controlled Denji like she has controlled other people in the series? Well, it is answered in Chainsaw Man Chapter 84 and that is because she is a fan of "his work" (see what I did there).

As a rabid stan has said "Up until recently, Makima has put Denji/Chainsaw man on a pedestal, and Makima directly states that she can only control people who she believes are lesser than herself. Meaning up until she broke Denji fully, she couldn't control him. Her laughing back in Chainsaw Man Chapter 82 was her finally seeing him as someone she could control, because if he was truly this amazing Hero of Hell, he would have been able to fight her off and save Power. Hell, maybe she's only controlling Chainsaw Man through the Denji part of him. I'm assuming it's only partial for now, like she has half which is enough for what has happened up till now but maybe she can't fully harness it?"


* What would happen if Denji were to eat The Hell Devil

Earlier we saw Denji come out of the Hell Devils doorway to hell. Question is, what happened to the Hell Devil? What would happen if Denji ate it? What would happen if Denji killed it? Would it set an inbalance in the world?

* Borgar:

An interesting question worth answering: If Pochita/Chainsaw Man eats Borgar-... sorry, Burgers then what happens to the concept of Burgers? Does it disappear? Or are we just looking into it too deeply? How does his powers really work?

Conclusion: Kobeni Just Kobeni. And Foreshadowing Galore!

Take it as you will, this is just a fan review, nothing too overtly serious and it is a compilation of sort of what fans are talking about about the recent chapter of Chainsaw Man Chapter 85. This also means that the mangaka can do what suites him or his fans (if they all so please), and don't have to follow this review to a dot, it is just remarks on chapters and interesting perspectives on things.


So, how can you summerize Chainsaw Man Chapter 85?

  • Kobeni... just Kobeni
  • Kobeni stole the show
  • Borgar
  • Even this chapter left our man Kishibe was left dumb founded
  • Chainsaw Man took Mikami out very easily in this first encounter which is very much swept under the rug when Kobeni appears.
